`

`Scientific Principles Underlying the
`‘799 Patent
`
`Regarding the chunks of data from the earlier version of the file that are to be retained and
`discarded, one possibility would be for the delta/update file to explicitly indicate for each
`chunk in the earlier version of the file whether it should be retained or discarded. In that
`case, the delta/update file would contain the following three commands: “insert” (for new
`segments, as discussed already), “copy” (i.e., retain a given chunk from the earlier file – e.g.,
`segments A1, A3, A5, and A6 in “901” in Fig. 9 of the ‘799 patent), and “delete” (i.e.,
`discard a given chunk from the earlier file - e.g., segments A2 and A4 in “901” in Fig. 9 of
`the ‘799 patent). However, one skilled in the art would quickly realize that a design with all
`three of these commands is overly pedantic (and inefficient) because it is not necessary to
`explicitly indicate both the chunks to retain and discard: explicitly specifying either one of
`these sets (i.e., all chunks to retain or all chunks to discard) will implicitly identify the other
`set. In other words, one can have either a retain-by-default policy where only the chunks to
`be discarded are specified (via a “delete” command) and all other chunks will be implicitly
`retained, or a discard-by-default policy where only the chunks to be retained must be
`specified (via a “copy” command) and all other chunks will be implicitly discarded.

`

`Scientific Principles Underlying the
`‘799 Patent
`
`When designing a system to generate an update file, a
`skilled artisan, as a matter of design choice, would have
`employed one of two basic design methodologies – either
`a discard-by-default process (with a “copy” command) or a
`retain-by-default process (with a “delete” command).

`

`Patentability Over Williams
`
`Williams teaches the construction of incremental backup information of X
`that includes raw subblocks, which represents data not included in the
`previously saved version of X (i.e., Y) and references to subblocks that are
`included in Y. Absent from this incremental backup information is any
`command to copy (or it equivalent) a segment of Y into X as
`reconstructed at E2. Instead, all that is included in the incremental backup
`information is a reference to a segment of Y to be retained, by E2, when
`reconstructing X. However, neither this reference, nor the incremental
`backup information, includes any command, or instruction, to copy or
`duplicate the related segment of Y when reconstructing X at E2.

`Proposed Claim 47
`
`47. A computer readable storage medium, comprising computer readable program
`code embodied on said computer readable storage medium, said computer readable
`program code for programming a first computer to provide updates for transmission
`to a second computer that permits the second computer to obtain most recent
`versions of files, the computer readable program code causing the first computer to
`perform the following steps: (a) determining whether the second computer has a latest
`version of a file, wherein said determining is performed by the first computer without
`interaction with the second computer by comparing representations of segments of
`the latest version of the file with representations of segments of an earlier version of
`the file in which ends of each of the segments of the earlier version of the file are
`defined by segment delimiters that are statistically determined to be optimal division
`points for the segments; (b) generating an update, if the second computer does not
`have a latest version of the file, wherein said generating is performed by the first
`computer without interaction with the second computer; and (c) transmitting the
`update from the first computer to the second computer.

`Patentability  Over  Williams  
`Q.  Does "most efficient" mean optimal, in
` your opinion?
`A.  No.
`Q.
` What does "optimal" mean?
`A. 
`In general, optimal for a system means
` that that's the -- that's the most – the
` state is achievable -- theoretically, you
` cannot beat that, talking in a general
` sense, not specific to this patent. In
` general, when you say something is
` optimal, that means you cannot have
` something better than that, given those
` constraints.
